Notes

"Winnie Davis was born Varina Anne Jefferson Davis in Richmond,
Virginia on June 27, 1864, during her father's presidency. She
became known as "The Daughter of the Confederacy" and was a
favorite of Confederate veterans at their reunions after the
war.

"Winnie received her early education from her mother during the
family's postwar travels, and subsequently was enrolled in
boarding schools in Karlsruhe, Germany, and in Paris. She
inherited her mother's literary interests and later authored a
biographical monograph (1888) and two novels (1888, 1895), all
published under the name Varina Anne Jefferson Davis.

"The Daughter of the Confederacy," as John B. Gordon anointed
her in 1886, lived with her parents at Beauvoir in the 1880s and
accompanied her father to numerous public appearances. Beloved
by veterans' groups, she became an icon of the Lost Cause.

The adoration became a burden when Winnie fell in love with
Alfred C. (Fred) Wilkinson, a Syracuse, New York, attorney whose
grandfather had been a leading abolitionist. Public turmoil
created by the five-year romance drove Winnie into periods of
deep emotional distress. The couple finally received the
blessings of both Jefferson and Varina Davis and were briefly
engaged in 1890. Although their breakup has always been blamed
on the public outcry, recent investigation seems to indicate
that it was due more to questions about Wilkinson's financial
situation.

Winnie moved to New York City with her mother in 1891 and
continued her literary pursuits. She contracted "malarial
gastritis" while visiting in Rhode Island and died at age
thirty-four. In keeping with her status among ex-Confederates,
she was buried with full military honors at Hollywood Cemetery
in Richmond, Virginia." http://www.csanews.net/varina.htm

"My ggg-grandfather was Captain Hugh Logan, a brother of Col.
Benjamin Logan of Lincoln County, Kentucky.

William Wolley and his family, with many other families, came to
Lincoln County, Kentucky, in 1782, with Henry Baughman; my
gggg-grandfather. William and Mary Wolley had married in
Bottetourt County, Virginia, about 1770. This party of
immigrants were set upon by Indians, and many of the immigrants
were killed.

One of those killed was Henry Baughman. Henry's brothers, Jacob
and John Baughman, had made a trip to Kentucky with Benjamin
Logan, Floyd, Boone, and others, in 1777; at which time, John
and Jacob Baughman had Floyd do their surveys. Both were later
killed at Boonesborough in 1779.

Jacob and John's brother, Henry, as Jacob's heir, had his
brother's (Jacob) papers in his jacket pocket when he was killed
at Crab Orchard, Lincoln County, Kentucky, in 1782. That is how
the mistake was made in Kentucky history, which states that it
was Jacob Baughman who was killed by the Indians at Crab
Orchard, Kentucky. Jacob had been dead for over two years in
1782.

All of the details are contained in a ten-year-long court case
recorded in Fayette County, Kentucky. William Hambelton, the
second husband of my g-g-g-g-grandmother, Mary Wolley, gave his
testimony in this case, at the home of the widow Mary Baughman;
my gggg-grandmother.

John Baughman's land went to his only heir, Christina Baughman,
who later married Benjamin Duncan in 1796 in Lincoln County,
Kentucky."

Richard Stockton m. 9th month (Nov.), 8th day, 1691, at the
Chesterfield Friends' monthly meeting, Susanna Witham Robinson.
She was b. Nov. 29, 1668, was the dau. of Robert and Ann Witham
and widow of Thomas Robinson. In June 1709, Richard Stockton was
one of the trustees of Friends' meeting house at Stony Brook;
but he d. the following month, while his children were all under
age. His widow was m., for the third time, to Judge Thomas
Leanoard, of Princeton; they had no issue." (Judge Leonard
married Abigail Doughty after Susannah's death)

*Colonial Families of The U.S., Vol 6, pg 430; 1917

*My Folks, Grace Lucille Olmstead Mershon: "Thomas Robinson, her
first husband made a Will on 23 APR 1690; filed 10 MAY 1691;
Susannah named Executrix"

*"Desc of William Johnson Stockton & Ann Nevers", 1992, Margaret
Stockton, Canada; Susanna Robinson was left a widow at age 22...
About the same time, Richard Stockton's father purchased land
..Springfield, Burlington Co. They were married aprox. 7 months
after the filing of Thomas Robinson's will." cites Dr. Mershon,
pp 132, who feels that the Witham may have been a Long Island
family as they are not to be found in the NJ Calendar of Records
or Wills through 1760. Robinson lived Crosswicks, Burlington,
NJ.
